Senate Will Debate Bill Curbing Out of State Abortions
 

The US Senate is set to debate the ramifications of a law that would prevent underage girls from going out of state for abortions. Some girls do this to keep it a secret from their parents and/or escape state parental notification laws.

Opponents say this punishes girls whose parents will beat or evict them for becoming pregnant. The bill is aimed at those who drive the girls out of state and is titled the Child Custody Protection Act. It gives a year's prison as a penalty.

The House has approved this bill 3 times but it never made the Senate. Now it is on the Senate GOP's Top 10 priority list of bill Senate Republicans want passed. 32 states have parental notification laws.

Clearly superior. Or the ole' sock in the gut.

Instant miscarriage if preformed properly.


Laws such as these truly uplift society.

  I agree.  
 Since the government is clearly trying to prevent people from having a safe procedure, coathangers and a quick left-right jab to the gut seem to be the best - and safest - alternatives. Face it people, it's gonna happen no matter if you like it or not. Stop trying to be the moral police, and focus on things that are more important... like thousand of the US youth being killed in war... lives that mean much more than some stupid fetus, that is clearly not wanted anyway!

  WTF?  
 The law isn't trying to stop them from having abortions. It's just trying to protect the parental rights of the parent. I would be pissed if I found out some strange adult drove my child out of state to do a medical procedure on her with me totally unaware.

As a parent, I am always ultimately responsible for my children. I would make anyone that tried to circumvent that wish they hadn't.

  When it gets to the point  
 That your children are (or "would be") having children, it's a bit late.

The parents have no "Right to know" -- it is the natural right of the women carrying the possible child to terminate it, provided the "possible" part is still in effect.

Born children are their own persons, and killing a baby is certainly murder.

The only one who needs to be notified of the would-be mother's choice is her herself, and I seriously doubt someone could seek an abortion oblivious of themselves.

This is aimed at stopping abortions by causing trouble at home. It's not necessary, and it's downright dangerous.

Not all families work "well."

You're looking at some dead young ladies when a) it's revealed they are sexually active b) they are terminating a pregnancy

It's a horrible idea, it will serve no good.

And as for the coathangers and punches:

No one has to notify a soul of those.

That's why I said it.

This proposed Law should die on the agenda.

Good riddence.

  damn right verboten  
 Im glad I dont live in a country where half the laws are based on some stupid religion. The churches are chasing the wrong dogs...

Let the people choose! Their sexual preference or choice of not having a child...its none of their business anyways.

 Doesnt work that way in some countries :)

Take a good look at most of the Islamic country and the US ;)

  The thing I don't understand is that  
 most of the conservative types who want abortion banned are also against public funding of programs to support other people... and where do these people come from? A lot of them come from homes and households where they are simply not wanted - a problem that could be remedied if they'd stop worrying about abortion! It makes no sense!

Why keep an unwanted baby around if nobody wants it? Not the parents, or the people in the state who are trying to make it so she has no choice but to have it...!
